This article mainly discusses the trunking and conduit used in surface-mounted wires, analyzes the advantages and disadvantages of conduit, and provides suggested options according to different needs and usage scenarios.
1. Introduction and advantages of trunking.
A trunking is a wire channel specially designed for exposed wires, usually made of materials such as PVC (polyvinyl chloride). Trunking has several advantages:
1.Easy installation: Trunking can be pre-designed and prefabricated, making the installation process easier and faster. Modern trunking is designed to be relatively reasonable, reducing errors during installation, as well as labor and time costs.
2.Ease of maintenance: The trunking can be easily serviced, maintained, and replaced after installation, as the trunking can be disassembled and assembled as needed. This is important for maintenance work, as it reduces overall O&M costs.
3.Nice and tidy: Trunking can hide wires and cables and ensure that they are neatly and orderly. As a result, exposed wires can be more beautiful and tidy without damaging indoor facilities and decorations.
4.Protection: The trunking can protect wires and cables from damage to electrical equipment caused by external factors. It can withstand certain external impact, waterproof, moisture-proof, fire-resistant, etc.
2. Introduction and advantages of line pipe.
Wire pipe is a type of wire protection pipe made of metal, usually made of materials such as steel, aluminum, galvanized iron, etc. Conduit has several advantages:
1.Good fire resistance: The line pipe is made of metal material, which has high fire resistance and can effectively prevent fire. This is very important for some places with special requirements, such as high-temperature working environment, flammable and explosive places, etc.
2.Strong anti-interference ability: the wire pipe is not easy to be interfered by the external electric field, reducing the influence of electromagnetic waves. Therefore, conduit is more suitable for some scenarios with strict requirements for signal transmission or more sensitive electronic equipment, such as hospitals and laboratories.
3.Good corrosion resistance: The metal material of the wire pipe has good corrosion resistance and is not easy to be eroded by acid and alkali environments. Therefore, in some special environments, such as humid and rainy, acidic or alkaline climates, conduit is more advantageous.
4.High strength: The strength of the line pipe is high and it can withstand a certain external force. This gives conduit an advantage in environments where wires need to be protected from damage, such as construction sites, machinery and equipment.
3. Choose a trunking or conduit according to your needs.
Trunking and conduit have their own advantages, and they need to be considered comprehensively according to different needs and usage scenarios when choosing. Here are some of the suggestions given:
1.Long and fixed lengths of exposed wires: If exposed wires need to cover long distances and are routed in a fixed position, trunking is a good choice. Trunking provides better concealment of wires and cables and makes it easier to maintain and replace.
2.Sensitive electromagnetic environment: If the environment where the exposed wire is located has strict requirements for electromagnetic waves, such as hospital operating rooms or scientific research laboratories, wire pipe is a more suitable choice. The metal material of the conduit can effectively resist interference and ensure the stability of signal transmission.
3.High fire protection requirements: If the environment where the exposed wire is located has high fire protection requirements, such as high temperature working environment or flammable and explosive places, wire pipe is a better choice. Due to the high fire resistance of the conduit, it can provide additional safety protection.
4.Cost control requirements: For scenarios where cost control is more sensitive, such as residential decoration, trunking is more economical than conduit.
Conclusion: According to the different needs and usage scenarios of surface-mounted wires, trunking and conduit have their own advantages. When choosing, factors such as installation convenience, maintenance efficiency, aesthetics, protection ability and cost should be comprehensively considered, and selected according to specific needs.
